MySQL runs on port 3306. If you already have MySQL installed and running on your laptop or PC, you may have conflicts. Please shutdown your local instance of MySQL by following these instructions on Windows or Mac. (Mac users should follow the Linux instructions.)
As a last resort, you can 'kill' the process. Open a terminal on Windows (Git Bash) or Mac, and run the following:
ps ax | grep mysql | grep -v grep | awk {'print $1'} | xargs kill -9
Or on Windows, open the Task Manager, search for the running MySQL service, and terminate it.
